Hi I wonder if any of you guys on here can help me out, we have our own windows server hosted in the UK with one of the large hosting firms, everything used to work ok but something has changed over the last 2 months and has left us pulling our hair out, every now and again when you try to get onto one of our sites (we have 6) you get a dns error, if you try to refresh the page the site will still not show, but if you close the browser down and leave it about a 30 seconds or so then the site will come back, this seems to happen with all of our 6 sites which are a mixture of asp.net and the others very basic .htm sites, the strange thing is that two of us work on the sites and only live a few miles apart and use the same isp, sometimes I am unable to get on the site yet my friend can, then other times I can get on the sites but he is unable to, can anyone please suggest a check list of things we need to look at before I loose the rest of my hair

Thanks in advance
